Come hang out with me today as I balance city life and greenery in my little NYC sanctuary! This morning started with some much-needed plant care (monstera and anthuriums were feeling a little neglected) and quick apartment tidying before I escaped to Queens for the day.
I finally made that trip to Elmhurst I've been talking about forever! The plant shop there did NOT disappoint - wait until you see what came home with me! And you know I couldn't leave Queens without grabbing some incredible handmade dumplings... serious comfort food that made the perfect ending to a peaceful day.
